Y=1/2x-4
Perpendicular means it is opposite and the reciprocal. 1/2(4) = 2-4 equals -2.
(4,-2)
Answer:
open circle
Step-by-step explanation:
open circle
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation: To find the equation of the perpendicular line, take the reciprocal of the slope with the opposite sign.
For example, the reciprocal of 4/3 is 3/4 and if it's negative, the opposite is positive.
The reciprocal of 2 is 1/2. and if it's positive, the opposite is negative.
The reciprocal of any number or fraction is whatever you multiply it by to get 1. 4 times 1/4 is 1 5/4 times 4/5 is 1. What about 1 ? 1 times 1 is 1. So one is its own reciprocal!

Answer:
x=17
Step-by-step explanation:
x-9=8
add nine on both sides
x-9+9=8+9
the nines on the side with the x cancel each other
x=17
